Caught in a net : Self‐assembly of nickel salts with 4,4′‐bipyridine and the long V‐shaped 4,4′‐oxybis(benzoate) ligand has led to three different coordination networks: a parallel polycatenation of nanotube motifs to give a layered framework (see picture), a 2D→3D polythreaded array involving five polymeric units at a time, and a 3D self‐penetrating binodal network with an unprecedented (4.8 2 )(4.6 4 .8 4 .10) topology.
